Before towing
Check that the following conditions are met:
●
Ensure that your vehicle’s tires are properly inflated. (

P. 467)
●
Trailer tires are inflated according to the trailer manufacturer’s recom-
mendation.
●
All trailer lights work as required by law.
●
All lights work each time you connect them.
●
The trailer ball is set at the proper height for the coupler on the trailer.
●
The trailer is level when it is hitched. Do not drive if the trailer is not level,
and check for improper tongue weight, overloading, worn suspension, or
other possible causes.
●
The trailer cargo is securely loaded.
●
The rear view mirrors conform to all applicable federal, state/provincial or
local regulations. If they do not, install rear view mirrors appropriate for
towing purposes.
No matter which class of tow hitch
applies, for a more safe trailer hookup,
the trailer ball setup must be the proper
height for the coupler on the trailer.
